Simple supply and demand, If there isn’t enough demand for the current supply producers they will seek new avenues of demand, this includes, artificially increasing demand. If the government would just deregulate the medical industry both sides would be forced to compete and then the man hit by an ambulance would have a choice of which ambulance that hit him to take.
